To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1390

Alec didn't know what else to say to Gilbert. He knew that Marigold would not be okay with it, so why didn't he just tell her everything? Was he going to keep on lying to her until she found out about things herself again? Would she be so easily comforted the next time it happened?

"I think you should give her a heads up so she'll be more prepared." If he did, Marigold would know about Gilbert's scheme, and while she would still feel uncomfortable, she wouldn't be too angry about it.

But if he didn't and kept on lying to her, all the comforting he had done today wouldn't matter. Marigold would still feel cheated, and he would have a much harder time appeasing her.

Gilbert understood what Alec was saying. However, he'd finally convinced Marigold that he was doing all this for her and the little one. How could she accept it if he told her that he was going to get engaged to someone else?

"I haven't thought about how to break it to her." Gilbert looked tired, which was rare, in front of Alec. If he could, he wanted to ignore everything related to the Bradshaws. But he just couldn't.

Alec had no idea what to do, but he insisted on his stance. "Being honest is still the best thing to do."

"I'll think about it," Gilbert said.

Alec didn't say anything else after that. After all, it was none of his business. He could only offer his opinion about the matter. It was still up to Gilbert to figure out the rest. But then, it looked like he didn't want to.

He could only hope that Gilbert would have no regrets in the end.

Soon, the car arrived at the backdoor of Gilbert's villa. After getting out of the car, Gilbert thanked him and went into his house through the backdoor, disappearing from Alec's sight.

Alec didn't dawdle. He left quickly.
